Well done Jason, I like it a lot! The extreme weathering is very good, as it should be on a Pacific bird IMHO. Thanks for the pics!
Frank
Yes Jason good to see it again, you did a very fine job. Was this the Eduard or Hasegawa kit? I have these markings for the Eduard kit and plan to do it one day, I just hate spraying white stripes!!
Cheers...

Jason, NICE to see your Hellcat again!!!! Honestly I don't think the weathering is overdone at all!!! Just hardworking before the paint had a chance to fade giving it the impression of being pressed into combat immediately and being a workhorse!!! Beautiful work!!!
Well Frank since we are keeping this going over here too & it looks like the site is working better, I would like to post my completed build.
Well I am calling this one done. I am happy with the results from my first completed build. I know I over did some of the weathering and learned many things about painting, decaling & finishing on this build.I did add cut brass for the gun barrels.
But to much Rambling on...BRING ON THE PICS!!!! :D
D >:(ng It!! I just noticed in the pics that somewhere between glueing on the pitot tube & 8 hours at work then to the photo session ...it has gone MIA :-[.Hopefully I will find it.
Thanks for all the great comments and help on this build.
Cheers & Semper Fi-Jason

Cap'n Bondo I will post pics of my Revell Lancaster if I ever get started on it, builds keep getting shunted about at the mo .
I'm in Capn Billy. Can I use my unfinished Lanc from the Matchbox GB?

NAMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! Where are you mate????!!!!! We gots another GB theme going!!!! That and we bloody well miss you!!!!!!!
Bill,
I shall have to pass on the Bomber GB this time around, as I have already commited to a few other GB's. Feel free to use the badge as you please!
Hey guys- we are starting up the Bomber Command Group Build at the other forum. How's about we all do this together, in both locations.
Frank- can we use the badge?

PAGE 110? My goodness, that was while back Richie. LOL
I'm looking forward to seeing more WIP pics of that one too!
Mike the most recent pics are on page 110.
Well I'll wander over and take a look at your Jake, which page is it on most recently? I've a certain lil ol P38 next up for me
Hehehe umm no I haven't actually. Done the seats and IP and thats pretty much it so far. I started painting the cockpit tub and about to add the PE bits when I started my Jake floater for the War in the Pacific build which I don't have far to go on. Just have to get my size twelves up my backside and get the home stretch finished. Then I will endeavour to complete the Buc before the end of the year. Frank I want you to hold me to that!! So will be forthcoming.
and thrice!
Stikpusher I've seen that kit a few times marked down to a real bargain, almost got it a couple of times, I look forward to seeing you whip it into shape.
Richie, I'd like to see more of your Buccaneer build sometime, I remember a seat but don't know if you've done anymore since.
Cheers....

No reason there can't be two NAW GB's. Something for everybody. We need a new CAG, though. I nominate Frank!

Yeah each has its pros and cons. Main thing was I just wanted to make sure I kept in contact with our comrades.
That's the spirit Richie! I went over to the other place, but it didn't agree with me. So, I am still here too!
Daywalker That's the spirit Carlos! We'll be right here with you for it.

not all of us have left. When i get back on my Buccaneer I am posting WIP shots in both places.
It is the Tamiya kit. Certainly not one of their better kits. Very basic in may areas. I will have to do more add ons with strip and sheet plastic to make up some shortcomings. I know several folks have left with the forum change, but the build lives on!
F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

Yes a very pleasant suprise , keep the pictures coming Stikpusher. Which kit is this one? I will enjoy watching the progress.
Looking good there Carlos! I was pleasantly surprised this morning to see an email stating that there was a reply here. Good on you for continuing on your Harrier!
I actually am still working on my Sea Harrier from time to time. I have assembled the wings, the engine, and a few other odds and ends. I am adding an Eduard Zoom set to dress up the cockpit. I have the fuselage together with rubber bands just for the pics here. The engine nozzles on the kit really suck so I am debating whether or not I should fix the kit ones or get a resin set from Pavla .
Great build Frank. Glad that you didn't let it beat you. Always thought the Corsair looked neat with the clipped tips.
Lovely work Frank great to see you finally win over on this one, nice to see it in those colours aswell .
Gotta get back to more guests..........
Thank you gentlemen! Sure feels good to finally have this one off of the bench.
OH FRANK!!!!!!!! WOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! That is absolutely stunning mate!!! I agree, it was well worth the wait!!! Love the 3/4 forward shot, looks like she means business!!!
WELL DONE!!!!!!
